"Columbus Day is traditionally marked by going to parades that honor the man credited with 'discovering' America. But for Native Americans, whose ancestors were displaced and marginalized by the European journey to this continent, it's a day of somber reflection or even mourning." [NPR]

why does that Youtube video intro say "VIVIN GIRL"? Notice the missing "A". isn't that sort of a big FAIL? or is that another new way of spelling out their name?

"...Native Americans, whose ancestors were displaced and marginalized by the European journey to this continent..."

Not to mention massacred. Speaking of ancestors, Christopher Columbus was of Spanish Jewish descent. Take that, paisans! Not that you should be proud of him, anyway.
